Thumbs up

A few more pix. It looks pretty stealthy, but when you get closer you can see the detail of the carbon. The extra coats of clear really brings out the shine. The guy who did the masking did an excellent job IMO.

WOW dude. Honestly this was my fav hood but I refused to get it because I couldnt figure out how to paint and leave the vents CF without it looking bad (i was going to leave the entire square-shape including raised peaks carbon) but i think you pulled it off beautifully!

Nope don't have that hood. Was planning on getting a CF 08 Hood and painting it but leaving some CF at the top. Kinda like a fade. But Love this look and I do plan on going Turbo so this would help with the heat. What do you think, I kinda want it nice and clean.

I know what you mean. I kept playing around with photo shop to see how I can accent the carbon without being too loud or obnoxious. I've seen some people do the square accent, but I didn't like how the box offsets my car. The fade is nice too, but I didn't want to deal with the risk of one side not matching the other. As pleased as I am of the outcome; I was still skeptical about the actual results because I only saw this style by way of photo shop. Boy does photo shop do wonders

Nice plans with the Turbo. I gave up an S14sr to go NA with my Z and I was entertaining the idea of going FI on my Z33, but its too expensive for my budget right now I miss boost and the sound of spool. If I were to go FI, SC is probably more in my budget range.

There have been a few of us that ran into problems with the Muteki's. I switched to Kics after the Muteki's ate half a stud on my rear hub.

Always love seeing updates to your ride FF. My car is on mod-hiatus for the year due to down payment on a house

I really like what you did with the hood.

That's the first time I have seen that hood painted with the vents left in CF, nice work!!
